ONTARIO, Calif., Oct. 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Heritage Grocers Group (“Heritage” or “HGG”), one of the largest Hispanic and ethnic food retailers in the country is pleased to announce that Cardenas Markets, in conjunction with the Cardenas Markets Foundation welcomed guests to the 21st Annual Golf Tournament on September 16th at the breathtaking Pelican Hill Golf Club in Newport Beach.
This event brought together vendor partners, community leaders, and supporters to raise scholarship funds for students in the communities served by Cardenas Markets and Los Altos Ranch Markets.
Founded by Jesus Cardenas, the visionary behind Cardenas Markets, the tournament began as a heartfelt initiative to give back to the community. Today, it stands as a powerful tradition that honors his legacy and continues to grow in impact and reach.
This year’s tournament was a huge success, raising over $900k to support scholarships for local students. The Foundation was especially honored to recognize San Bernardino County Supervisor Curt Hagman, whose generous contribution of $100,000 will directly support students pursuing higher education in San Bernardino County’s District 4. His commitment to education and community empowerment exemplifies the spirit of this event, and with such contribution, this year’s fundraising efforts towards education reached over $1 Million.
“We are deeply grateful for the unwavering support of our community partners and participants,” said Adam Salgado, President of the Cardenas Markets Foundation. “Their generosity helps open doors for local students, making higher education more accessible and empowering them to pursue their dreams.”
The tournament also marked the beginning of Hispanic Heritage Month, a time to celebrate the rich culture and heritage that defines the communities served by the Foundation.
